"When Words Fail, Colors Speak!" That’s the magic award-winning author apalessandri brought to our Inspiring Voices series! With heart and vibrancy, Alexandra shared her powerful picture book Isabel and Her Colores Go to School — a heartfelt tale of courage, creativity, and connection. Through Isabel’s colorful journey of navigating a new school without understanding English, our students discovered that art can be a bridge when language feels like a wall. Alexandra didn’t just read a story — she painted one. She opened up about her own path as a writer, inspired thoughtful conversations, and gave us an exciting glimpse into her upcoming books. Our young learners asked bold, beautiful questions — and walked away dreaming bigger than ever. Thank you, Alexandra, for reminding us that every story matters — especially the ones written in color. #InspiringVoices #AlexandraAlessandri #IsabelAndHerColores #VillageBookBuilders #LatinxAuthors #DiverseBooks #KidLit #RepresentationMatters #G...
